Dear Ann-Marie
We have used your breast warmers for 5 women who suffer from nipple vasospasm with great success. Three of the women found 80-100% relief while the other two required a small doses of Adalat oros to eliminate their symptoms.We highly recommend the breast warmers to our patients with Reynaud’s of the nipples (vasospasm).
Yours sincerely
Carolyn Lawlor-Smith and Jill Bruce
